My two boars have started having fall outs :'( :'(.. When they were outside everything was fine between them,since I brought them in the house and put two other boars living right next to them things have not gone well....
Flopy is around 2 years old and zac is now 5 months it could be Zacs hormones have kicked in,2 new boars living next to them or bringing them inside..
I should also mention the indoor accomadation is now half the size they are used to having, I had to bring the foster piggies inside aswell.

Okay so I have a spare cage slightly smaller than nero 4, should I put the 2 foster piggies in there and try my own two with the 5x2 they are used to having ?

I feel a real bad piggie mummy :'( Zac now has a poorly nose and Flopy has scratches to his back :'(
 
I have the same problem. :-\

I have fostered a pair of bonded boars, but they have started fighting with each other. I think they may have been fighting a little bit before, but now they really hurt each other. I have had to separate them.

I think it's because they can smell my other piggies.

I feel bad for them being on their own. :'(
 
I've now moved the foster piggies into another cage in the other room .. Does anyone think I should seperate my own two or see how they go together ?
 
I would see how they go. I have 7 boars but started off with 2, every time I brought a new pair in, the others kicked off but it didn`t last and they settled once they got used to the new arrivals :)
